This. Nobody is giving us anything. They MAY just take less of our money than they used to.
Why would I give the government more of my hard earned money to waste?
If you have programs in mind that you feel are worthwhile and underfunded then nobody is stopping you from donating your money to those causes.
If you live in America this is a government of, by, and for the people, and the decisionmakers who write tax law are entirely elected by the people. And we spend more than we take in in revenue, and have for almost all of the past 80 years, so no one has been paying their share at current tax rates or past tax rates or proposed tax rates. Just shut up.
